I've tried watching three Fassbinder…
I've tried watching several Fassbinder films on IA. On each separate occasion the video's stopped playing midway through and wouldn't start playing again despite refreshing the page, closing and restarting the browser, clearing cache, etc, etc. Pretty annoying to be left hanging an hour or more into a film. My network is 3-5mbps. I realize that IA is free, but do expect the likely possibility that you might waste a fair amount of time trying to wrangle a video with Internet Archive. The 'please donate' window to help keep us going is insulting. If the site worked as it should one might be more inclined to help out monetarily. As it stands, I've spent my time – which is quite valuable to me, trying to figure get a video to resume playing. In another world IA would owe me money.
